WELCOME

Massey has a long, proud tradition of teaching and research excellence.
Its heritage, geographic spread over three major cities, range of
programmes and the flexibility of its distance teaching all mean it
offers students from around the world the ability to tailor their study to
meet their needs and at the same time connect closely with industry,
professional organisations and local communities.

When we describe Massey University as New Zealand’s “defining”
university we mean it epitomises the creativity, innovation and
connectedness our nation is renowned for.

Massey has more than 4300 international students each year from 100
countries. It delivers teaching programmes in seven other countries
through Massey University Worldwide, and has international teaching
partnerships with tertiary institutions in 15 nations.

We recognise that choosing to leave your own country in order to
achieve academic qualifications is a life-changing decision. I warmly
invite you to be part of our diverse and stimulating student community.

According to the QS world Professor Jan Thomas
university rankings, Massey @ProfJanThomas
University has the highest
graduate employment rate in
New Zealand, and is ranked

A GRADUATE’S PERSPECTIVE

nnXITAO HU (HUGO), China
Master of Communication Management, Palmerston North campus
“Choosing to study at Massey was one of the best decisions I have
ever made. The campus in Palmerston North is quiet, green and
beautiful, providing a peaceful environment. When I first arrived
there, I was given a warm welcome by all the staff and lecturers
from the School of Communication, Journalism and Marketing. The
lecturers are very nice and approachable, and the staff are also very
friendly and responsive to the needs of students. I really appreciate
the kind assistance and support they offered to me, which taught me
how to better serve international students in my job as a Customer
Service Manager in an international education company.”

A GRADUATE’S PERSPECTIVE

nnGRACIE XIAO, China
Master of Food Technology, Auckland campus
"Massey University graduates are also well-known for being
practical, hands-on and quickly adapting to the work environment.
That is exactly what I wanted to be like when I graduated and the
programme has well equipped me to achieve my goal.
I have been working in the new product development team for
Sanitarium Health & Wellbeing since I completed my Postgraduate
Diploma in Food Technology. Later, I was awarded a scholarship
from my current employer to complete my Master of Food
Technology part-time while continuing working.
The most rewarding part of the study is that I can use all the practical
skills in my daily job and the knowledge gives me confidence to
tackle real work problems."
